The Writing Round-Up {10.20.18}


Welcome to the October 20, 2018 edition of The Writing Round-Up, a gathering of tips for teaching writing and for growing as a teacher writer. We appreciate you stopping by.

Whether you are a teacher of writers or a teacher who writes, we've found some great tips for you this week! Let's get started...

Celebrate Your Student-Writers:

Become a Teach Write Cartonera Classroom and take part in a fun, affordable and supported writing project that builds student engagement and enthusiasm for writing. Read more here.

Looking for a (Virtual) Writing Group?:

Get together with some awesome teacher-writers without ever leaving home! We are now forming our next cohort of teacher-writers for our Time to Write! virtual writing workshop. We will meet on Wednesday evenings starting November 7. Register or find more information here.

Create a Writing Community:

What does it take to build a community of writers in your school or classroom? Literacy for Pleasure has some tips for you.

Stop Waiting:

The excuses for why we don't write can run a mile long. It's time to stop the madness. Check out "3 Ways to Quit Waiting for 'Perfect' Writing Conditions" from Sara Mann and The Write Life for more.

Teacherless Writing:

Teaching writing without teaching writing? Sarah J. Donovan explores this interesting idea.
